    How can I pair the Motion Sensor (FGMS-001), do I need to change some associations? Now there is a 1 in group3. But still it is not working well. Most of the time the motion stays triggerd or the update time is to long so i get no actual data
  • WebsterWebster Member
    Just add it with the left button and dont put 1 in group 1 i have a 1 in group 3 and it is working fine

  • arthurarthur Member
    The luminance of all (3) my sensors are also not updating very well.

    Don't know if it is the same problem, but I am very unhappy with the updates of the luminance. In the manual I found this: parameter 40. ILLUMINATION REPORT THRESHOLD

    The parameter determines the change in light intensity level resulting in illumination report being sent to the main controller.

     Available settings: 0 - 65535 (1 - 65535 lux; 0 = reports are notsent)

     Default setting: 200 (200 lux)

     Parameter size: 2 [byte] 

    So per default the sensor only report changes in luminance when it exceeded 200 lux. What in my case don't make any sense indoors. I hope the advanced parameters will be added within the next weeks.

    Is that what you have observed?


  • arthurarthur Member
    I think you may be right, luminance levels in the data points from insights mostly exceed 200 Lux, sometimes less though. In the old firmware I changed this parameter, but it seems to have been overwritten when I had to re-add the sensors to the system using the fibaro app. 

    We will have to wait until Athom updates the App to allow parameter customisation again.

    So what did i do wrong? 

    alarms do not turn off :(
  • RobinRobin Member
    Motion and tamper? Or just tamper?
  • nicornicor Member
    @Ziglar I see that you only have Group 1 associated, My multisensor has an association on all 3 groups by default. Maybe that has something to do with it as well?
  • Fire69Fire69 Member
    @ziglar, you should at least have 1 in group 3, don't know if the other 2 are necessary.
  • RobinRobin Member
    1, 2 and 3 should be the default
  • ZiglarZiglar Member

    like this ?

  • RobinRobin Member
    They should all contain the nodeId of Homey (1 usually)

    fill in 3 * 1 (not 1-2-3)
    Then save, and wake up youre device, to upload the settings (press button 1 or 3 times)

  • ZiglarZiglar Member
    if i do so, the lux is not reported and the tanger alarm does not turn off 
  • mbalik79mbalik79 Member
    and removing the battery for 30sec?


  • ZiglarZiglar Member
    took the battery out.
    restarted homey
    put the battery in
    tamper alert still activated and wont turn off

    - press 3times the button
    - sensor turns blue -> then update the settings..

    It worked for me..

  • ZiglarZiglar Member
    held the fibaro very close to homey and pressed 3 times the b button, waited until the blue light dissapeared.
    tamper alarm is still active :(

    These are my settings..works just fine (tamper operation mode on (3) )

    @Ziglar ;;;
    change your tamper operation mode, to option (1)
    and for your lux (illumination), it is only send when more then 200 lux difference is measured and not on a time interval. so you would need to change these (they do impact battery life)

  • mbalik79mbalik79 Member
    @caseda ;
    Mine is working on option 3 and it works fine. If I touch the sensor, homey starts to scream "blijf van me af"

    Copied the settings,
    updated the fibaro by pressing 3 times b button

    tamper alert stopped and movement works perfect.

    thanks @mbalik79 ;

    @caseda the tamper option was at 1, and changed it to 3 now.

    thankfully people know exactly the difference of the options :smiley: </sarcasm>

    Almost 2 months without good working fibaro (motion, lux, tamper, temprature and battery ) sensors.

    Why is there no one from athom that can say which settings are correct for the motion sensors ?
    and if you have to reset, how you reset, which assiosiations you have to set.
    Put it somewhere on the website, or make a video of it.....

    sometimes there is data from the sensors ( have 3 ) but mostly there is not.
    is the app going to be updatet ? do i need the change the default settings ?


  • ZiglarZiglar Member
    @Erwin75 ;
    step 1 : install the fibaro app
    step 2: Hold the b-button of your fibaro for 4-6 seconds to enter the 2nd level menu (coulour will change)
    step 3: short press the B button, the colour will turn red and fade
    step 4: add fibaro to homey using the zwave+ version of the motion sensor in the fibaro app
    step 5: leave all associations to 1 (in group 1, 2, and 3 the value should be "1")
    step 6: Copy the settings from the picture @mbalik79 posted and save them
    step 7: press the b-button 3 times, very close to homey
    step 8: place your fibaro on the desired location and observe at least 24 hours its funtion trough homey.

    Thankss will play with these settings also

    Because these are the default settings by Fibaro.
    For instance: the tamper alarm is default set to never stop (by default that is).

    For tamper to work the association groups have to be correct, which is updated in the driver later on.
    Maybe you had this device associated before this was updated?
